In this tutorial I'm going to show you how to manage some print settings within MIDAS.

Now in this particular calendar date you can see I have a number of bookings, and if I left-click the print icon, MIDAS will generate a printout of those bookings, and as you can see they're sorted by ascending start time.

If we wish to change our printout so they're instead sorted by another field, we can go to MIDAS Admin Options, Manage MIDAS - and on the "Print" tab we can select another field.

So we could say sort by venue and we can make that ascending or descending and we'll save changes to that.

So now when I print, you'll see now the printout is ordered instead by venue.

There's one other print setting on this Manage MIDAS screen - that is the "Emergency Evacuation Data Accuracy".

The emergency evacuation feature of MIDAS allows you to generate a real-time printout of the number of people on your site at the present moment and their location.

This setting allows you to also capture bookings that are about to start or have recently ended.

So for example setting this for 15 minutes would also include information for those bookings that have finished within the last 15 minutes, or that are about to start within the next 15 minutes.

For more information do check out our dedicated video tutorial on the Emergency Evacuation Data features in MIDAS.
